Yuppp this place is still it after three visits! Coconut cream matcha latte with extra matcha and half sweet is so smooth and creamy, though it's $11 which is a little pricey. Matcha white hot chocolate is also good -- tastes better hot than iced imo. Still advocating for other milk types besides oat and whole (a girl needs her 1% or 2% lol), but overall this remains one of my favorites.
Super lowkey matcha and coffee spot in Kensington market. Absolutely loved their strawberry matcha with mascarpone cream - so good and creamy! The place itself is small and there's a lot of people crammed in working there but it has a very cool vibe. They have a good mix of drink options and have stuff you can buy from them to prepare your own matcha at home. The service was pretty fast for how crowded the place was. Their specialty drinks are also very unique!
This was really good matcha. It was about $4 for a 9 oz, and I loved how when I mixed the strawberry jam into the matcha, the flavor stayed strong throughout rather than just sticking to the bottom only. The place is small but super modern and clean inside. The people were nice and service was fast. Took about 2 ish min from ordering on the tablet to getting my drink!
This is my latest favourite spot! They have the right amount of Matcha!!!! I'd recommend the strawberry and coconut matcha lattes, the mango juice in their mango latte overpowered the matcha entirely. The new space has seating for maybe 4/5 people max, pretty much a pick up and go spot. Don't expect too much seating! You order off the two iPads upon entering the cafe, then they make the drinks prettt quickly.
visited toronto on a 4 day trip and this was the best matcha i had in the area. there was a 20 min wait in line to order, but drinks came out shortly after ordering. drinks are def on the sweeter side, however, i love that you can actually taste the flavors. i would def come again when im back in toronto
The matcha is rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced--not too sweet and not too bitter. You can really taste the quality in every sip. The only downside? There's usually a bit of a wait, especially during peak hours, but honestly, the matcha is worth it. If you're a matcha lover looking for a cozy café and a quality drink, Wu Wei deserves a spot on your list.
I really appreciate how Wu Wei offers various drink sizes (S, M, L) and provides a non-dairy option at no extra cost. I ordered the Strawberry Matcha half-sweet and think I could have ordered it full sweetness. The matcha amount was generous albeit a little too grassy/vegetal for my liking. I like that you can watch the matcharistas make it in front of you with proper whisking techniques.
Ordered: Medium Iced Hojicha Cheesecake Latte (~$8 CAD): half sweet, with oatmilk Small Iced Peach Cobbler Matcha (~$8 CAD) Aya's take: Wu Wei is a popular coffee/matcha spot in Kensington Market and is pretty easy to miss until you see the line of people outside. We ordered on the screen and really the only human interaction you have here is when the worker is handing you your drink. A lot of their beverages are caffeinated dessert drinks, in my opinion, and that was the exact thing I needed when we stopped by. The Iced Hojicha Cheesecake Latte was solid. It was nutty, toasty, and earthy and the cheesecake cream foam was sweet, velvety, and indulgent. The Iced Peach Cobbler Matcha tasted exactly how it sounded but didn't hit the spot for me. The matcha easily got lost and overpowered by the peach flavor. So if you like peach flavor, you might like this one. It seems like one of those spots that became popular/viral and although it was decent, I don't think I'd return.
All the rave for matcha in Toronto right now. Hidden in the back of the 6x8 Market in Kensington Market. I've tried it twice now and both times I came they were sold out of the blueberry matcha - bummer for me. I think their matcha is extremely creamy and not so much for my palette, but I know lots of people who love it! The experience of ordering from their ipad and seeing the cute space really adds to the fun of getting this matcha drink. Here's what I got/ thoughts on each drink: Iced strawberry matcha - Liked their strawberry puree mixture for this matcha drink. Think this was ok with the blend of their matcha but wasn't a strong enough matcha flavour. Iced matcha coconut cloud - Not a drink for me unfortunately but can see others loving this. As expected it's very creamy from the coconut cloud and was a bit heavy to drink. Yuzu matcha tonic - Refreshing matcha drink with the yuzu and matcha. Mango matcha - Another refreshing matcha drink with the mango juice. However, the mango flavour really overpowers the matcha. Matcha latte - A classic that you can't really go wrong with. Overall, there are hit and misses for this spot. Try it out for yourself as it's always fun to get some matcha drinks in the city.
I have been here a few times and I have seen that sometimes they do change up the menu which is neat, you can try something new each time. I tried the matcha and hojicha and I can say that they are well made. I was here also last year when he sold caneles and they were awesome, I hope he has brought it back!! When the owner makes the drink, you can tell he has mastered his craft as every movement looked like a performance. Friendly guy with lots of knowledge with his drinks, he can easily strike up a conversation with you if you are willing to talk or ask questions!
Wu Wei has gained a lot of attention on social media for having great matcha. So, of course I had to try it. They have an iPad on the wall for you to order for yourself. I ordered the blueberry matcha! Super delicious and it had a nice blueberry flavour. The jam they used had whole chunks of blueberry. Overall pretty good -- a little too sweet for my liking, so it's not my first choice for matcha.
Viral cafe serving matcha in a vintage supermarket in Kensington market! I tried their blueberry matcha later as most cafes don't offer that, it usually comes with cheese foam but I removed it. The matcha was just okay, They do use second harvest tea leaves but it was a good mix! They offer free alternative milk which is nice (oat milk) but kind of pricey. Very open concept as you can them making your drink right infront of you. Service was fast and effective even though there's a big line. Ambiance is cute but no seats to sit but you can shop around to see local treasure. I don't think I would go out of my way to try drinks as the matcha is very light 7/10
Wu Wei Coffee is tucked away at the back of a store (6x8 Market) in Kensington Market. They try to keep the lineup to 10 people to avoid ruining the vibe of the store, but I think there were more people in line than that... It was nice to see the matcha being whisked up with care. Service was not too slow for the number of people they had to deal with. I got the iced matcha coconut cloud, and the coconut foam was indeed velvety and fluffy. The matcha was not sweet, which made me happy. It does feel a tad overpriced for the small amount of drink. It's nice to take a look around the store while you wait for the drink to be made. Think I'll drop by time to time when I'm in the area.

TLDR: Delicious matcha in Kensington market that you could easily miss because it's tucked away below ground floor :') I know "coffee" is in their name but I'm not really able to tell good coffee apart from bad coffee, hence, the matcha -[MEDIUM ICED PEACH COBBLER MATCHA LATTE] $9.00 - the small size is $8.00 and +$1.00 for a medium :D Made up of velvety matcha poured over their house-made peach compote which is then topped off with their silky egg custard foam and brown sugar oat crumble. My goodness, genuinely reminded me of a peach cobbler in the best way! I will admit, the pieces of oat crumble made the drink slightly tougher to sip through the straw but so worth it still NOTE: You can swap from 3% milk to oat milk for free! Also, their online ordering system makes it so easy to order ahead and just grah it when you arrive. Will definitely be back again! read more
Very small space. Theres no seating inside or above along the sidewalk. It's a steep downward entry, and hard to find as it's below another business. Down some steps to the lower unit through doors to two kiosks where you place your order. Depending on the day, it came get quite crowded as there's no room to really wait in a line. We showed up on a Saturday and it was busy and crowded. Three baristas working but no one offered to take orders so everyone used the kiosks. Wu Wei Coffee | 无为 style drinks with Signature Wu Wei M2 Matcha: My mom got an Iced Strawberry Matcha with oat milk, light ice and I got Iced Strawberry Matcha Mascarpone which was same as strawberry matcha just with a layer of mascarpone cheese cold foam. Both of us liked our drinks, great matcha mix and strawberry puree. They didn't charge for milk alternatives but whether it was hot or iced. read more

This place lives up to its hype It's downstairs under the vintage store they have one kiosk that you have to order from there's no person taking your order which is kind of annoying because if it's your first time there you can spend a lot of time going through the menu like the person in front of me and then the line built up to where it was backed up outside the store I hope they can kind of fix that maybe have another machine that people can order from. They do have online ordering where you can order ahead but if it's your first time going there you wouldn't know that Inside is very simple and clean you can visually see the baristas behind the counter making all the drinks and they are making it with love and care and they have smiles on their faces they looked happy I decided to try the blueberry matcha and I was a little bit scared because all their drinks the matcha looked so dark I was worried it was going to be bitter but I was wrong The macha was smooth, and you can actually taste it even after mixing the drink the color was still rich it wasn't bitter the blueberry puree had actual chunks of blueberry which threw me off when I first started drinking because I was not expecting that Overall I probably wouldn't get the blueberry again just because I think I would prefer a strawberry or a different fruit (just a preference) but it was still made well and I can taste the quality ingredients. I honestly would get their ice matcha without a flavor as well. They do not sweeten all their drinks but there is a station on the side where you can pour in your own simple syrup read more
I can't stop thinking about this Matcha Cortado, and I wish I lived locally so I can have this again. This is the flavor of matcha that I've been looking for in the states - perfectly strong matcha taste, not too milky, smooth and beautifully bright green! This was also $4.44 CAD, which was amazing to hear! I feel like this would be $8 in the US, and still be mostly milk. If I could, I would try their other drinks, they all sound delicious. But the interior of this store was so cool, it felt like walking into a modern cave. And the staff were all so friendly! I'll be thinking of this matcha until I go back! read more
I went to Wu Wei Coffee after seeing it on TikTok and ordered the Matcha Coconut Latte. Ordering was done via a kiosk they set up at the entrance. The store itself was very dim and had a zen-like vibe. The Matcha latte itself was quite delicious and had a strong matcha flavor. I didn't get much coconut taste and I thought the size was a bit small for the price you pay. It's a good drink but I think the place is a bit overrated and personally I wouldn't come back again. read more
The ordering process was through a kiosk which made it easy for me to go through the drink selection, and also adjust the sweetness/amount of ice, as needed. The shop was a bit hard to find since it was underneath another shop, but the interior was cozy and minimalistic, giving it an elegant modern vibe. The drinks though??? They were sooooo good!! I loved both of the drinks I had gotten; the strawberry matcha was a bit on the sweeter side bc of the syrup but it had a smooth and creaming taste, and the mascarpone paired so well. The hojicha latte was perfect; the sweetness didnt overpower the flavor of the hojicha which I loved! Definitely coming back to visit on my next trip!!! read more

Many varieties of matcha, and coffees. Got the iced blueberry matcha but when mixed it looked like a black sesame latte! Fruity / tangy notes from the blueberry made the matcha quite refreshing. Would need to come back for their hojicha drinks and caneles. They were temporarily not selling the caneles in Jan, but the staff mentioned it will be coming back soon. read more

Iced peach cobbler matcha was unreal! A matcha heaven with a "not too sweet"peach compote, silky egg custard foam and oat crumble on top. There's a self serve ordering system with their machine or you can order online through their website. A must try in Kensington Market. read more

my fave strawberry matcha latte in toronto!! wu wei is located inside 6x8 market in kensington. i walked in and the market was clean and beautiful. the staff immediately greeted me and guided me to the ipad for ordering and pictures for the drinks. the drink itself was delicious. the strawberry at the bottom provided the sweetness for the drinks - which tasted very real and gently sweet. the matcha itself i could say was high quality ceremonial grade. yummy. definitely will be back to try the other drinks! read more

I decided to try We Wei Coffee after checking out their menu and found some creative delicious drinks I wanted to try. The coffee shop is hidden inside 6 x 8 market and there is no seating available inside, so it is more for a grab and go coffee run. I tried 2 items on the Special drinks menu: 1. Hojicha cheesecake latte, with the cheese foam on top and cheesecake crumbles to add some crunchy texture to go along with a slightly bitter taste of the hojicha. It was delicious. 2. Orange mocha is another must-try item since it combines the perfect balance of sweet orange syrup with the bitter sweet mocha. The staff are very friendly and helpful. You can tell how much effort and attention they put into creating each drink as both of my drinks came out as delicious as they are beautiful. I am so impressed. Will definitely be back read more
Cute matcha stall nestled inside a Kensington market. I had the Stawberry Matcha (~7) which came with fresh strawberry purée at the bottom, topped with milk and matcha prepared in front of you. The sweetness of the purée really complimented and elevated the matcha flavour. Ordering is through an iPad and there are no seats for sit-down. read more
If you're a matcha lover or just want some quality drinks, this is the place for you. We ordered the iced blueberry matcha and cloud foam (whipped coconut) iced matcha and it was delicious. The shop is located in Kensington inside of a market giving it a cozy feel, although there is no seating available. The service was quick and you order via a kiosk at the front. The drinks are definitely pricey but worth it for a treat once in a while. The matcha came unsweetened but there is syrup on the side to adjust accordingly. It will be a pick me up spot whenever I am craving matcha! read more

A little counter inside a tchotchke shop with incredible matcha offerings. I ordered a matcha brownie from a Michelin pastry chef (not too sweet! Can actually taste matcha and not white chocolate) and a matcha coconut breeze which is coconut water topped with matcha foam - light and refreshing!! There were so many unusual matcha drink options (like one with tonic water and burnt rosemary) that it was hard to choose. The owner was kind and chatty about their philosophy and a delight to learn from. He said they roast their own beans for coffee affectionados as well read more
This place Is so good!the matcha drink was pretty good but the hojicha cheesecake latte was AMAZING!!! I never had anything like it! It's tucked away in a small shop so It was a little hard to find. There was also no AC so I felt bad for the workers. Would highly recommend to matcha lovers! read more
Cafe tucked inside a market at Kensington. You really have to go all the way to the back to see them. I've heard they started off with coffee but I've actually heard more things about their matcha and ive wanted to try it for a while. There's online ordering for efficiency, also there's pictures so it helps visualize the drinks you'll be getting. They have limited pastries etc so when i went on a saturday afternoon they were sold out. Got a classic matcha latte and the feedback I heard was right - this is smooth and rich matcha. There are places in the city that make it super milky, or just not enough of the matcha taste- but not Wu Wei. The matcha was silky smooth. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of their matcha and coffee drinks read more
It's currently inside another shop in Kensington. I forgot the name though sorry. The owner is very nice and he says he runs the business with his wife. It's a small business so obviously everything is very personal and intimate. My cup was quite delicious and of course I would recommend. read more
